Crank, no start

Asked by GuruYLYXX Mar 08, 2018 at 04:38 PM about the 2003 Subaru Forester XS

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

MY Subaru Forster will crank but not start.  I was
driving and it felt like I couldn’t accelerate.  The
“check engine” light came on and then it stopped
running.  I pulled over to the shoulder and tried to
start it up again and it sounds like it’s trying but
won’t turn over.  Any ideas what might be the
cause?

Figure it out yet? Cam or Crank sensor? O2 sensor? Coil? Check the codes and diagnose and fix.
